CSV FILE
CSV is a simple file format used to store tabular data,
such as a spreadsheet or database.
Files in the CSV format can be imported to and
exported from programs that store data in tables,
such as Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice Calc.
CSV stands for "comma-separated values“.
A comma-separated values file is a delimited text
file that uses a comma to separate values.
Each line of the file is a data record. Each record
consists of one or more fields, separated by
commas. The use of the comma as a field separator
is the source of the name for this file format

import csv module
Use open() to open CSV file by
specifying mode “w” or “a”, it
will return file object.
“w” will overwrite previous content
“a” will add content to the end of
previous content.
Pass the file object to writer object with
delimiter.
Then use writerow() to send data in CSV
file

First line : importing csv module to perform operation on csv file.
Second line: to open file for writing in append mode using
“with” block,
already discussed with read program.
Third line: to create csv writer object to write in csv file, first
parameter is the name of file object, second one is optional
parameter i.e. delimiter. Here mywriter will be the writer object

Fourth line: we have take a variable ans=„y‟ so that loop will
iterate as long as ans value is „y‟
Fifth line: we have create a while loop using ans i.e. as long as
ans is „y‟ loop will iterate.
Next 3 lines : we have taken input for eno, name and salary

Ninth line : in this line we are writing data to csv file using
writerow() of mywriter in the form of list. This function takes
any iterable object to write like list, tuples, etc. So we have
passed all the input in the form of list.
Another function is writerows() which is used when we want to
write multiple
rows.
